Watsons Crag

Thor and I took a trip out to Guthega for an afternoon climb of Twynam, sunset ski on Watsons Crag, and full moon ski down through Blue Lake and back to Guthega. The spring corn was a delight to ski, and the weather was perfect. The white out right twilight was a worry, but the moon came out just as we skied down to Blue Lake. On the traverse back along the Snowy, one small but persistent cloud obscured the moon almost all the way back. Finding our way back on snow was a challenge in the bush, ending in us humping our gear on foot. It was an exhausting but great day/night out.
